Answer:
The option which best states the author's overall purpose in this text is:
D. To inform the reader of a theory that attempts to explain why generations act the way they do.
Explanation:
I looked this question up and found out it concerns the text "What Past Generations Can Teach Us About Our Future," by former Newsweek correspondent Mike Kubic (born in 1927).
According to the article, Strauss & Howe developed a theory that explains and, in a way, even predicts how each generation will act. There are four "turnings" or stages which generations go through. According to Strauss & Howe's observations, these stages always happen in the same order: high, awakening, unraveling, and crisis. The generation belonging to each turning will always present certain traits and behaviors concerning their sense of community, individualism, economic prosperity, respect for institutions, etc.
<u>According to Kubic, this theory has been both praised and criticized, even though, so far, it has been able to successfully make predictions about the American society. However, it is important to note that Kubic does not praise or criticize it himself. All he does is describe and explain it. His purpose is to inform readers about the existence of the theory.</u>

The statement from Governor George Wallace's inaugural address best serves as conflicting evidence for King’s statement is each separate political station makes its contribution to our lives. Thus, option "B" is correct.
<h3>What is the evidence for King’s statement?</h3>
A famous phrase from the Inaugural Address of Governor George Wallace in 1963 is “segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever”. Segregation means keeping people from different groups, especially different races, separate.
Wallace’s ideas, which were associated with racism, were a sharp contrast to Martin Luther King Jr.’s ideas. This is why Martin Luther King Jr. responded to Wallace's inaugural address in several occasions. In his “The American Dream” speech, Martin Luther King Jr. argues that there should not be segregation, since “no individual can live alone: no nation can live alone”.
Thus, option "B" is correct.
